It is encouracine to see how soon the people cool off and go back to business after the heat and dust of a hard fought campaign, which wound up in a result that was surprising to all,! except a few who had consulted the oracles but took good care to hold their valuable knowledge till the returns came in. Of course they knew exactly how the thing was go ing two, yep, even six months ago. wisMOir. I was here two days last week. WinBton is not "on a boom," though there are forty seven factories hum ming away and two other large and handsome ones are on the way to completion. Winston is solid front the ground up. The business men pay their bills and are clever and courteous. . Winston is tarning out two firBt class weddings a week and more to follow, do says Mr. Reynolds, and he is in a position to know. The graded school, one of the best in the State, is here to stay. OBX1ABBOBO. The Baptist State Convention was here during the week. No town in rsorth Carolina would have enter tained it better. If the traveling men ever noid a convention in the State it will be at the Benbow and McAdoo Hotel p. I did not attend the convention longer than to get the dimensions of a few heavy onej. When I entered N- B. Broughton was speaking. I wanted to hear him, but the next man I heard was J. H. Mills moring ! He was asleep and he won't deny it. . But this must not reflect on Mr. Broughton s speech, for Mr. Mills, after attending to his work at the convention, went home every night to look after his paper, which he issued daily during the convention. And, too, I learn he has dooe this (snored) from "his youth up. We have but one Jack Mills, and the orphans of North Carolina will bless his memory in all the years to come. Dr. C. C. Bitting, of Phila delphia, made a splendid speech. He is one man that evolution had better let alone. He charms you whether he speaks, preacher, prays or talks at the fireside. (lit smokes, too ) The last speech I heard wai made by Rev. Mr. Brown of Missouri, form erly of this State. He is tall and thin, too much so for a cold climate. He wears side whiskers and it may be has a moustache. Ha spoke on home missions. The president al lowed him considerable latitude in bis preliminaries. In fact "all roads go to Rome" in times like this, ex cept tbat sometimes Dr. Hafham in the midst of his perambulations re minds some brother that he (the brother) is off the question. The convention - soon learned that the speaker was full of hia theme, and, speaking for myself, I have not heard a stronger or more pathetic appeal upon this topic I left the conven tion convinoed that ; it was one of the best, if not the best, convention ever held in the State, by the Bap'iste; that our preachers and people are growing in intelligence and in liber ality; that e have some preachers in North Carolina who apeak with great force and effect; that others are not so strong and therefore ought to listen more and speak less. HILLS BOBO Has a chance now that it has never had before to build up and become a town of thrut and importance as a trading centre. I wonder if it will take its chances. Here is the elegant home of Judge Ruffin. His friends all over North Carolina will be pained to learn of his failing health. He is quite fee ble, and yet you feel that he still has all the vitality of his best days, as he talks to you of the affairs of today. As you take your leave of him at his front door, you feel that you are just out of the presence of a real noble man. Uaddill. Important Resolution.. New Berne Journal.

Attorney General Webster,! counsel for the Times, complained of the difficulty experienced in bringing forward witnesses from county Kerry He called the judge s attention to an article in the Kerry Sentinel (Mr. Edward Harrington's paper) which stated that "the judges composing the Parnell commission were show ing Bigns of measles now, although at the opening of the inquiry they had appeared to be spotless. The judges were the creatures of a con spiracy entered into by the govern ment and the Times and were mani festly unable to veil their prejudices." The Attorney-General appealed to the court to take action in the matter, as such publications tended to defeat justice and amounted to the grossest contempt. Mr. Reid, in behalf ot Mr. Parting ton, complained that no notice of a charge of this character had been given them, and it was absolutely lin pOBsiole to make an answercat pres ent. Ha asked that the matter be adjourned until tomorrow. Presiding Judge Hannen and the Attorney General both agreed to this and the matter stood over, rne ex amination Of witnesses was then re sumed.

Bv Telegraph to the News and Observer. Cincinsati, Nov. 20. The Harrison accommodation on the Cincinnati, In dianapolis, St. Louis & Cbicsgo Rail road, due at 7 58 in this city, left the track by reason of spreading rails about two miles this fide of Harrison and overturned five coaches. One coach had fire in it and from this the wreck caught fire, but it was soon ex tinguished. About forty passengers were aboard, nearly all of whom were more or less hurt, Bix seriously and one old lady fatally. Mr. Scott Small, reporter of the Cincinnati Times Star, was in the wreck and was pain fully cut and bruised, but made his way to his office with his report. A River Undergroamd. A special from Charleston, S. O, says : Some time ago workmen dig ging a well near Black's dropped a crowbar through a crevice and never saw it again. Black's is on a direct line between Raleigh, N. C , where recently an underground river was discovered? and Laurenp, in this State, where the existence of immense caves was lately indicated by the sinking of some land. It was thought that per haps an underground river was along the mountain belt of Nqrth and South Carolina, finally working its way into the Gulf. Some gentlemen of a scientific turn of mind detei mined to investigate the matter and had a shaft sunk. At a depth of fifty feet it was noticed that the shaft was perfectly dry, although fifty feet away a well forty feet deep was so full of water that, one could dip it out by hand. This morning a woman pushed a bar into a crevice inside the shaft and detached a mass of material, opening a small hole, from which air seemed to rash, accompanied by a loud noise as of escaping steam. The shaft was soon filled with vapor and the fright ened woman fled. A large number of citizens collect ed, and a dozen or more descended the shaft. - All agree that they heard the sound of running water over a shoal perhaps one hundred feet lower down. It is probable that twenty feet more of excavat;on will have to be made before it will be definitely known what is the nature and extent of the body of water. Mr. N. W. Hardin says it is to him plainly a waterfall of considerable size falling at least ten feet and re moved 200 feet to the north of the shaft. Ex Senator J. G.
